Howdy,

I have been using the following function to select the appropriate OS
specific directory separator. I have two questions about it: (1) what
is the correct directory separator in VMS?, and (2) is there a built-in
means of getting the same information?

Thanks,

Ben

;------START
FUNCTION SYSSEP

Case StrLowCase(!Version.OS_Family) of
'unix': Return, '/'
'win': Return,'\'
'macos': Return,':'
'vms': Return, ''
Else: Return, ''
EndCase

End
;---------END
